    Spell Tricks and Combos A to Z

    Can you really do this? I don't think the spell description is clear about what happens with your immediate surroundings when you're trapped within an Otiluke's Resilient Sphere, so I've always played it as the environment within the sphere is harmless, regardless of the state of your...

    Getting rid of Cross-Class skills?

    I've changed cross-class skills in my game to cost the same as class skills, but the maximum ranks remain the same. This way a character isn't penalized for learning stuff outside his archetype, but he will never be able to upstage those to whom the skills come more naturally. This may present...

    Thanks for the help. Everything worked out smoothly, with one of the Stirges escaping with 4 Con points worth of blood in it's belly :D

    Grappling Stirges

    Please help me clarify how the Stirges grappling works for tonights game. 1: The Stirge attacks with a touch attack that if successful means that it's grappling, without provoking an AoO or needing to win a grapple check, correct? 2: If it's still attached/grappling the following round, it...

    [Winners Announced] Guess which number I'm thinking of and win FREE PRODUCT!

    Another giveaway will be most welcomed! I would actually prefer two more giveaways for 1 module each over a single one for both of them. (And it would be extra nice if the winner could choose which module to receive, for those who have already bought one of them...)

    Why don't you buy modules?

    Modules are now the only thing I buy to compliment the core books. I've bought my share of 1e and 2e AD&D supplements, but I feel that the current core rules (still) offer enough new stuff and choices, and I've created my own setting, so all I need for the moment are some modules to flesh out...

    [Winners Announced] Guess which number I'm thinking of and win FREE PRODUCT!

    When you give this info, does it mean that those that have guessed already may do so again, or is it still just one entry each?

    I'm using this house rule as well. And on top of that all characters are granted a free skill point each level to be spend on a Craft, Knowledge or Profession skill.

    Improved Trip as part of Aoo

    I know. I started one myself on another board some time ago, presenting the view that Elder-Basilisk holds above, and due to the replies I got then I chose my own stand on this (being that you can trip as an AoO on an attempt to get up.) Now, my only problem with this is, should the defender of...

    Improved Trip as part of Aoo

    Has there been an official ruling on this, or is it your own reading of the rules? While I can follow your logic, I think it's flawed. It's true that an AoO is resolved before the actions that triggers it, but that doesn't mean that it takes place before that action, rather I'd say it takes...

    Why do Wizards get bonus feats?

    My experience with metamagic feats is limited, so I'm a bit surprised to see this. Do the rest of you agree? If the wizard didn't get bonus feats, wouldn't he buy metamagic feats using his normal feats? Edit: Rephrase

    How to Build a Better Scout?

    Garnfellow, it seems that a tweaked 3.5 Ranger is closest to what you're looking for, judging by your own Scout write-up above. If you choose to make a spell less Ranger, I have one observation that I haven't seen anybody else make: When compensating for the loss of spells I often see people...

    Why do Wizards get bonus feats?

    You don't find that 'unique character ideas' can be fulfilled through roleplaying, alignment, race, skills and feat and spell selection? Just curious, as I've never seen the need for PrC's to make a character unique... (Edit: Elaborated my question.)

    What are your beefs with the d20 system?

    Prestige Classes. I don't have a big beef with those - I just choose to not not include them, as I don't feel they're at all necessary. Comming from 1e & 2e I think that 3x allows for an incredible degree of customization by means of it's feats and multiclassing rules. In pursuing a certain...

    Why do Wizards get bonus feats?

    Does any of you have any insights or thoughts about why it was deemed necessary to grant bonus feats to Wizards? Wouldn't they have been powerful enough without them?
